On Monday a friend sent me an email that was unexpected.
First she said I was a gracious host. This is a huge compliment to me, because I love to throw parties for my friends.
Then she told me she was proud of me and that she admired me. (BLUSHING)...
She said I made motherhood look easy. She said I was so inspiring and patient with Henry.
I think I re-read her email 10 times.
Motherhood can be a thankless job. Most the time no one comments or notices. To have someone I admire give me a compliment felt so good.
So ladies...go give someone who doesn't expect it a compliment today. Tell another mom she's doing a good job. She will love you for it!

your quote literally just gave me the chills. You have some very smart friends:)
I've always said this, I don't know how you do it Heather! Working full time, 2 blogs, with a family at home :) If this were me, I'd be bald by now as I would have totally torn out all of my hair!
This is such a good reminder ~ thank you! It's important for us to pick up the woman around us by letting them know how much they're appreciated :)
